    Hung archery net in UK garage (9ft ceiling) yesterday using wire rope. Hit a few 7 irons for proof of concept and it all works 😊. Now got to install projector and learn how to stream from gaming pc to old laptop in garage and buy a decent hitting mat. Thanks to you and other commenters for all the advice. It’s taken me 2 months of planning to get to this point and the advice has been invaluable. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    Great tips there Mitch, the hardware ones in particular will help a lot of people from “saving” money only to find they’ve wasted it 👍🏻

    Fully agree with Mitch , I made a few of those mistakes. The biggest was going for height over width. Dug down to get 10 foot height but forgot about the width needed to swing a driver. Can swing a driver but means changing my on course swing . Thanks for the tips I used your site a lot before completing my sim shed.

    Would you consider removing the flooring and digging out the concrete floor to a depth that allows you to swing a driver. It would not be as expensive as you may think. I’m based in Preston so happy to advise where needed. Also, an inline extractor (£55) and a vent would be a great idea.

    I thought about it long and hard but I still don’t have enough width in my room to be able to swing driver - even if I had the height 😔

    LOL. I made 5 out of 10 :-) Just changed from skytrak+ to protec vx, from epson beamer to benq lh820+ and from e6 to gspro. NOW the games can start 🙂

    Did you have to mount the LH820 in front of the hitting area, does this bother you at all?

    I went cheap on everything! Ended up upgrading the hitting mat immediately and upgrading my launch monitor later. Still using a net, cheap projector and cheapish computer. Someday I’d love to get a full enclosure but my setup works so it’s hard to justify

    They are made by Golf Swing Systems (www.golfswingsystems.co.uk). You'll be able to get a 5% discount on their price if you quote my code HANDICAP5. You may need to email or call them as they are custom made to fit individual setups 👍🏼⛳️

    My biggest mistake so far was getting a skytrak plus. The club data is a joke. Best decision ive made was getting a gc3

    GC3 is a photometric launch monitor (uses high speed cameras to calculate data) 👍🏼⛳️

    What's wrong with the club data on Skytrak+ if you wouldn't mind? Currently planning my first sim build and still to decide which launch monitor to go for.

    Projectors aren't even worth it anymore. Lazer tvs are INSANE. WOrth the price since you'll be having it perm.

    You advertise on numerous videos that your PDF Ebook is free, NOT SO, this is click bait, why not tell everyone that it’s not free and you charge £10????!

    I think I advertise on two videos that the ebook is free - the very first time I advertised it where I explain it was free for the first 50 downloads. And admittedly on another video I mistakenly used the same clip to promote the ebook (as explained in one of the comments on that video). Aside from that I’m unaware of the ‘numerous other’ videos I supposedly say it’s free on. If you could point them out for me that would be helpful 👍🏼
